Kneeling 🧎‍♀️it down with 20 seconds left, one of the best QBs in thr league, and one TO

[WEATHER DOT COM]

Kneels. 

 

This coach is a total loser.

 

Why not try to win the game? 
 

He should be walking back to Buffalo. 
 

So pathetic

Because of the risk of interception and field position. 

 

20 seconds isn't a thing.  It's hysterical to make it one.

 

And if it is intercepted then this thread has a different title and the coach is called a moron.

I said this in the 2nd half thread and someone said “but the conditions were bad”.

 

Who cares?  You play to win the game.  You have to take a shot if it fails then kneel it out and call it a day.  But what would ever make you believe this defense was going to stop someone in overtime.

I wouldn't fire him for the 20 seconds, though I agree with you but there are now two examples, where the QB of the Buffalo Bills played a nearly flawless football game. Over 400 yards and 4 TD's today and ended up losing because the defense couldn't get a stop. This is not just a two time thing, this has happened multiple times over his tenure in the 7 years he has been the Head Coach. Its his specialty, the defensive side of the ball. You expect a Defensive Specialist to be able to get a stop on top teams when your QB has literally played an almost perfect game.

 

I just can't with this guy anymore. He did his job. He took the Bills to heights they haven't been for the last 20 years before he came along but he isn't going to take this team to the Super Bowl. We will always fall short with him. He is not aggressive enough both allowing his offense to spread it out and go and his defense is well lets play soft until they get in range and hope for a mistake.

 

What I love about the Chiefs is they are aggressive on both sides and it has bitten them in the past but they are going to go down swinging all the time. Spags in that situation is literally bringing the house on defense over and over and over again and he's trying to get you to make a dumb decision or get a sack and fumble or a holding penalty to put you at a disadvantage. Reid goes for it when the opportunity presents.

Dude it should have been 3 TOs.  We wasted two while on D on the last two plays.  Eagles third down and Icing the kicker.

 

this team more than any other should know that 13 seconds is plenty of time.  20 seconds and 3 TOs is an eternity.

 

[dhbGT500]

He should've had at least 2 TO's...he blew one trying to ice the kicker!

He was playing to lose....chicken crap coaching there.

[davefan66]

Bad move.  Have to win out to get to the playoffs.  Do WHATEVER IT TAKES.

[Livinginthepast]

That was as gutless as it comes. Maybe McD should have looked at Josh and his record in OT and tried to avoid yet another choke but McD is too slow to even think in the moment like that! At least throw a deep pass and try it . Thats why he should be fired TONIGHT.

Yeah. You’re 100% right. Season is on the line. The minute he called a TO on the FG try I knew he was settling for OT. 

 

Oh well. On to the next one!

100%...

I had no problem kneeling it out with 20 seconds. What I have a problem with is the consistent vanilla defense when ahead late in the game. He lacks zero killer instinct and allows teams to stay close. We are an above average team that becomes average. 

[Donuts and Doritos]

It's like McD's never seen a team score in 20 seconds or less in regulation, ever. C'mon man, you're 0-6 in OT.

[NoHuddleKelly12]

I was ill when they kneeled in that spot—take the deep shot and maybe you get a PI? On second thought, with this ref crew…🙈

we sure do now…

[jlgarsh]

When are Bills reporters going to call for McDermott's job?

Icing the kicker, wasting a timeout they could have used

 

Calling timeout in OT giving them more time to plan the play

 

Defensive playcalls that a blind QB could pick apart

 

Dorsey was a problem, Sean is THE PROBLEM!

3 plays and like 30 yards gives you a shot. They will be playing soft so you throw a few quick outs with very little risk.
